Check the Image|Mode. If you are CMYK, for example, or 16-bit, GIF is not an option. You should change image mode, or use Save For Web.

BTW, changing an extension doesn’t change the format. PS reads the extension and expects to "decode" the image according to the specs of that particular format. If you change a JPG to a GIF extension, PS expects it to be GIF and will give an error.
